  9. sargentaaron2004 says:

    Imagine sending the original X Box back to 1977? It would blow peoples minds! It has more graphics than the Star Wars film studio at that time!

    I had 2600 at the end of 1976. I know everyone posts 19977 but I played Combat for 6 straight months (I was dying for a second game). Finally Indy 500 packaged with driving paddles came out. So the so call “tennis/pong” paddles were actually “driving” paddles. Atari 3rd and 4th games were Breakout and Superman.

    i fell sorry for the people that lived in that time we have all the badass consoles great picture and quality.but still cool

  16. PirhanaandKodiak says:

    A typo here. In the second script in the Vectrex section, the word ‘faster’ should be ‘raster’. just for a FYI

    Nothing’s especially rare. But… If you find the video games for these systems complete with perfect packaging, good instructions, etc. those are rare. Also, unopened consoles and systems that come with the original boxs/manuals are rare as well. You see, all these things were made with paper and cardboard from the 70′s and 80′s, so, by now, in 2008, finding complete paper boxes/cardboard boxes/paper manuals that aren’t damaged and intact is becoming rarer and rarer.

    5star history lesson! Kudos for putting these histories together. Though I missed out on the vid game thing (hey Ibe young at heart tho :D )I find trivia/history like this quite interesting and you have done a good job of presenting it.
    Kind of a dumb question probably but what of these old 1st&2nd gen systems are worth looking for to collectors? Any real rarities or do they just sort of stay dead?
    Just wonderin’

    (Cheers) too!

    wow…. AWEOSME 5 STARS

  20. mopbrothers says:

    The opening song in this sounds so much like Streets of Rage it scares me.

  21. randommuchlol888 says:

    Ok. Thank you

  22. Iwatchtrek says:

    Nintendo – Castlevania Theme (Gothic Techno Remix)

  23. randommuchlol888 says:

    Can you tell me the song that sounds like Simon Belmont’s theme. What’s the remix?

  24. Redknight345 says:

    The atari 2600 is the best classic console of all time.
